Procedure

To concentrated sulfuric acid (200 mL) at −40° C. was added benzene-1,2-diamine (20 g, 184.95 mmol, 1.00 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred for 30 min at room temperature. Then the resulting solution was stirred overnight at 140° C. in an oil bath. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, quenched by the addition of 500 g of ice, and the solids collected by filtration. The crude product was purified by recrystallization from water, resulting in 9.8 g (28%) of 3,4-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid as a white solid.
